15.3% alc., 1350 cases, $39. Owned by Kevin and
Debra Buckler, this winery is located in the cool Sonoma Coast town of Petaluma at 1995 S. McDowell Blvd.
Founded in 1999, production is 5,000 cases of Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.
The interesting tasting room features a display of racing cars (Kevin is a well-known sports car racer). The
winemaker is Frank Dusak. The 2005 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir was one of the top wines at the 2008 Pinot
Noir Shootout and sold out quickly.
·The wine pulls you in with attractive aromas of wild berries, earth, pepper, oak
and a nice touch of barnyard. Dark-fruited with a strong tug of oak that competes with the fruit. Softly textured
with a clean finish that leaves a little heat in its wake.Reviewed October 1, 2008
